Is everyone on blogspot a fricken poet?

Hi-ho, your ole pal Chuggy just cruising the blogosphere (government work is just great!). It seems like every page i come up on always has some kind of poetic, fruity little saying that is supposed to lead us to believe the author is some kind of enlighted individual that is casting pearls to swine. Having been accused of being a member of the porcine crowd, i was not offended, just amused enough as to cause my bald head to tilt just a little and say, "hmmm".

For the record, im not complaining but im just trying to wonder where it all comes from. Is there a book out there of somekind that i missed out on that has all of these clever phrases in it? I like a poem as well as the next dude but when did the world get so sugary in its language. I guess maybe its the mindset that we all get, you know what i mean. We all claim to watch public telivison so that we may may come off as sophisticated and rarely do we admit to the guilty pleasure of watching the Three Stooges or re-runs of Threes Company on TVLand. And how often have you heard someone say, "i really dont watch much TV". I say B - b- b- b- BULLSHIT!

Look. Shakespeare is awesome, boring and long-winded at times but when you get through the language there are a lot of cool messages of love, honor, good and evil, hatred, revenge, war, tragedy and comedy as well. Ultimately it is entertainment, we draw from it what we will and live our lives. He played to the enlightened part of ourselves as well as the more base and common parts of the human condition as well. Take it as good entertainment and take into your heart what you will. You are the instrument and he as well as other artists, writers, musicians are playing their music with the strings of your heart, mind and soul.

So, what is the message? I have no damned idea.

Chuggy
